Abstract: Wilderness based learning can serve as a powerful medium to environmental education and sustainability education. However, many Outdoor Education programs do not have the tools and resources for effectively facilitating connection to the environment or building knowledge in environmental and sustainability issues. This project develops an environmental education and sustainability education resource guide for The Department of Kinesiology′s Outdoor Education Program at California State University Chico. The environmental and sustainability curriculum developed and gathered for this project will serve as a resource for the educators to build on the outdoor experiences and places which are integral to the program. The curriculum includes basic ecological concepts, natural history, current issues and sensory awareness activities, and provides methods and information for fostering connection to, knowledge of, and responsibility for environmental and sustainability issues. Ultimately this resource guide aims to facilitate the educator′s ability to deepen and develop stewardship practices of the students in the Outdoor Education courses.
